I'd assume that this new piece is probably going to confirm a lot more people were actually involved in the planning and execution of the screwjob like confirming Triple H having a direct role in it.

Bret despised HBK which is why he pleaded to drop the title in the US instead or to someone else in Canada. Part of it has to do with HBK supposedly telling Bret that he would never show him the same level of respect if the roles were reversed.
It might have also convinced Bret that Vince really was in cahoots with HBK the whole time to get the belt off of him in any way possible. Like even if he agreed to the idea, Vince probably would have pulled a different screwjob than the one Bret would be expecting. It would also give Vince all the ammo needed to put the blame entirely on Bret instead of himself or HBK afterwards.
